The get/set wakeup time EFI runtime services are often broken, and
rarely if ever used in practice. But the GetNextHighMonoCount() EFI
runtime services really takes the cake for most pointless API in the
history of computing.
So let's stop exposing them in Linux, hopefully r
From: Ard Biesheuvel
The EFI test module covers the get/set wakeup time EFI runtime
services, as well as GetNextHighMonoCount(). In both cases, though, it
just mindlessly exercises the API, without any functional testing.
In case of the get/set wakeup time services, this would involve setting

The EFI rtc driver is used by non-x86 architectures only, and exposes
the get/set wakeup time functionality provided by the underlying
platform. This is usually broken on most platforms, and not widely used
to begin with [if at all], so let's just remove it.

Using EFI runtime services to program the RTC to wake up the system is
supported in theory, but rarely works in practice. Fortunately, this
functionality is rarely [if ever] used to begin with so we can just drop
it. (Note that the EFI rtc driver is not used by x86, which pro

I do not have a preference, but since you already have a patch thread started,
it is probably easiest to just hav
